I disagree with you Palo on Hausas being the dumbest peeps in Nigeria. Teach them something and watch them do it with a difference (fast and efficiently too), a dumb person would never improve on whatever he learns that is if he ever grasped your teachings in the first place. Hausa man neva shine your shoe before? lol. Na their suya and kilishi sure pass.

In markets, I see them working as porters and they are different. Idiraba is probably the dirtiest place in the whole of Lagos but the magic those Hausas create with their needle and thread is amazing. Marvelous Embroidery! The well-schooled ones are amazing orators and damn good strategist.

Nigeria would never attain its full potentials until we begin to see the good in ourselves and the peculiarity of each and every tribe.#GodBless

I don't know sha but in QC for some reason a lot of the hausa students repeated a class, at least once and almost all of them were below average. And having stayed in the north for a while, I have to agree that they have very low IQ. But there are obviously exceptions, and the smart ones are exceptionally smart.

Do you have the statistics to back this up? I schooled in QC too and I don't quite agree with you. Then, my generation may be different from yours. In my time the Head girl was a Northerner. Also, remember that in school we grouped them all as Hausa because of the common language. It's later on we realised some were Fulani, Hausa, Kanuri, Shuwa Arab etc. Must we colour everything with tribes? We have serious problems as a nation.

@Palo, you see, you just opened your mouth and shit came out, anyway, is there anything wrong if they are Hausas? They should have known they exceeded the capacity of the vehicle. abi e resemble donkey? haba!

Nigeria has a big problem. I assume that most people on the internet are younger than average yet you get these tribalism fueled comments everyday. What is wrong with us as a people? How can we progress when we can't understand another tribe's frustrations and relate to them with empathy, when we constantly attribute negative qualities to tribes other than ours. It saddens me whenever I see a comment that spews hatred based on tribe.
